I believe the best option incorporates all three approaches, in the following sequence:Connect with knowledgeable local investors to quickly get a sense for the many sub-marketsBuild a core team of capable professionals (PM, inspectors, contractors) who are goal-aligned with you and also have no conflicts of interest among themselvesDo a single small deal to establish a work process for the team and get a minor win.Make strategic visits, not to inspect rehab work but rather to strengthen your relationships with your core team.Do more and larger deals, adjusting the team as necessary.This is exactly the approach I'm in Lubbock, Texas today and would love to compare notes with you.
